1. They couldn't possibly have.

Everyone knows that european-style socialized medicine kills any and all medical innovation. No medical firsts of any kind could come out of Spain. They just mooch off the American innovation we pay for.

2. I thought a few face transplants had been performed in Cleveland

I wonder what the difference was.

3. Maybe the one in Cleveland was an Elvis impersonator! nt

5. I think this was the first voluntary one

Those ones in Cleveland....not so sure...;)

6. I think one was a woman who's boyfriend or husband shot her in the face

And the other one was the woman who got attacked by the chimp.

7. Didnt think we could have voluntary surgery in europe

only forced upon us by the gubment.
